BitAxe overheats within 2 min after your boi installed an ICE-tower .. just wanted it to look more fancy :(
Any idea what I messed up?
Soldered the cables cuz I don't trust my crimping skills.

Enough thermal paste?
I wonder if the 10 mm thick fan is simply not powerful enough compared to the 20 mm stock one. I've seen setups with 2 fans .. but is this really necessary or did I mess up sth else?
Probably thermal paste wasn't applied well. It needs to be even. Not too much, not too little. Id remove yhe cooler and try again. Also make sure it's tightened properly. Don't torque it down to the max but it shld be on solid enough not to wiggle.
I assume you cooler is not on a tight fit. Don’t use any of these plastic fit thingis. Spring loaded screwes and a good thermal paste
Can I use the ice cooler tower without this socket and instead with spring loaded screws? Didn't know that. Do you have a link (or the screw specifications) so I can buy them? I'm from Germany, I think u r too, right?
